Friday, October 1st kicked off our 2021 Brakes for Breasts campaign at Elysian Auto Service. This is our 7th year participating and we are on pace for our best year yet! As part of the fundraiser, participating auto repair facilities will give away free brake pads or shoes. The customer pays the labor and any other ancillary parts necessary to complete the brake job, and the shops then donate 10% of the brake job directly to Dr. Vincent Tuohy & The Cleveland Clinic Breast Cancer Vaccine Research Fund. Dr. Tuohy and his team have created a vaccine designed to prevent triple-negative breast cancer. The vaccine has FDA approval and started clinical trials this summer. Brakes For Breasts started in 2011 and since then has raised over $1,000,000! We are so proud to be part of such an amazing organization and fundraising effort.
